Simon Masloch obtained his master’s degree in Linguistics (with a focus on Computational Linguistics) from Ruhr-Universität Bochum in 2020. Currently, he is a PhD student and research associate.
My PhD project deals with the syntax and semantics of emotion verbs with a special focus on factors influencing the linear order of their arguments and phenomena that relate to these linearisation preferences such as binding and scope. In general, I am interested in syntax, semantics, and their interaction.
